The Bittel Family
Our family pictures are in and they were definitely worth all of the stress trying to make every little detail perfect! Trista Lerit did an amazing job at capturing us. This shoot was mainly for new head shots for the unveiling of my new DrewB site, so we did a lot of those and let the boys be in them when Brayden wasn’t being “difficult”
I feel it’s so important as a photographer to be in front of the camera every once in a while to really remember how awkward and unnerving it can be. To know what it feels like to have a 2 year old melt down when you just want to capture your family being happy. To remember what it feels like to wake up in the middle of the night with anticipation for your shoot. It’s so easy for it to just be a “job” for us and forget that the shoots we do for our clients can be a once a year, every couple of years, or even a once in a lifetime experience for them. What can you do to make this an incredible, easy, and fun experience for them?
Here are a few of my favorite images. To see the rest visit the awesome Trista Lerit’s blog!
